UNBEATABLE APPLE VALLEY VALUE | 0.42-ACRE WALKOUT | HARDIE SIDING & MARVIN WINDOWS
Rare build quality and exceptional value come together in this move-in ready four-bedroom walkout on a premier 0.42-acre lot. Built for total peace of mind, this home features high-grade James Hardie fiber cement siding, top-tier Marvin windows, and a 2021 roof replacement. Situated within top-rated District 196 school boundaries and just minutes from Lebanon Hills Regional Park and the Minnesota Zoo, it offers the ultimate balance of suburban convenience and natural beauty.
Inside, gorgeous real hardwood floors flow seamlessly across the entire main level, leading into an open kitchen with stainless steel appliances and ample counter space. Exit directly out from the dining room onto your side deck, which connects to a massive rear deck overlooking a flat, private backyard—the ultimate setup for summer hosting, grilling, or relaxing in your own outdoor retreat.
The sprawling walkout lower level expands your living space substantially, centered around a cozy gas fireplace with a wood mantle. Designed for total versatility, this level easily accommodates a media lounge, game area, and dedicated home office. It also features a spacious fourth bedroom, an adjacent ¾ bathroom, and a generous mechanical room housing the laundry area and a dedicated workshop space.
Complete with an attached two-car garage and unmatched structural integrity, this is the premier value play in Apple Valley heading into fall.
